It certainly doesn't look linear to me - as I (and hexDa3m0n) already mentioned there is a larger point jump between orange and yellow than yellow and green.

Also, if points are going to be awarded at live events they may not even have decided where the future point-levels are going to be set. It may even be possible to earn a leitmark without ever solving a card - if you earn enough points at the free events.

I'm just pleased I'm going to have a more colourful jumper...should this be in meta? Cards and Points aren't really much to do with the game.

Okay, this may belong in meta, and I promise this is my last "this is linear" post too.

Here's the graph. The blue points are known lietmark point values. The red points are forecasted from the linear equation shown. The R value is for the known red points only.

You decide if it's linear.



I agree that points earned at live events could throw this off...

I've seen papers published on much less data Smile

But I don't like your red points because you don't know they're going to be there. Razz

Well, it isn't quite linear but it's a "line of best fit" and that's good enough for me. I think it's safe to assume those red points are roughly in the correct spaces. Not gonna know until we get there though, right?

Yes, at times the virtual leitmark banana is actually the real leitmark nuclear bomb apple.

Fruit is a strange thing.

Cool lietmarks. I haven't received mine yet and I know why.

I've just checked my profile and forgot to put in my full address. Thankfully corrected, though still a while before I get the green one.

I still haven't received any leitmarks. And yes, I checked that my address is entered on the pxcsite. poop. Sad

Anyone else not received theirs? I sure would like mine before Saturday...
